Meanwhile, remember Libya?

The New Neo Posted on March 14, 2011 by neoMarch 14, 2011

Qaddafi does. And he’s making sure that Libya remembers him. Is the fact that Qaddafi is successfully fighting the rebels any sort of surprise? It shouldn’t be. Nothing fundamental has changed in Libya since I wrote this three weeks ago: … Continue reading →

Why is so much attention being paid to the nuclear reactor?

The New Neo Posted on March 14, 2011 by neoMarch 14, 2011

Japan: epicenter of disaster

The New Neo Posted on March 13, 2011 by neoMarch 13, 2011

There’s the quake, and then there’s the aftermath. Sometimes, as in Japan today, the latter is worse than the former. Not that the former wasn’t really really bad. It was, and it lasted for over two minutes. I’ve been in … Continue reading →

Apocalypse now?

The New Neo Posted on March 12, 2011 by neoMarch 12, 2011

The scenes on the television are surreal. Buildings and cars and trains and boats tossed around and floating in water like so many discarded toys in a flooded garbage dump. Fire. And now, a potential (or already partial) nuclear meltdown. … Continue reading →

The Guten Tag Hop Clop and Hansel and Gretel

The New Neo Posted on March 11, 2011 by neoMarch 11, 2011

I believe I have done a great service to the world in unearthing the provenance of Mel Brooks’ immortal “Guten Tag Hop Clop” from the musical version of “The Producers.” You may have thought it was merely a ridiculous German … Continue reading →

Earthquake and tsunami in Japan

The New Neo Posted on March 11, 2011 by neoMarch 11, 2011

The terrible earthquake and tsunami last night in Japan recalls the fact that tsunami is a Japanese word: The term “Tsunami” comes from the Japanese word for harbor (tsu) and wave (nami). The origins of the word are not surprising … Continue reading →

And speaking of boxing…

The New Neo Posted on March 10, 2011 by neoMarch 10, 2011

…which we were the other day, in the comments section on this thread in which I’d said I couldn’t stand the sport—caused me to recall the single worst moment of boxing history I’ve ever had the misfortune to witness. It … Continue reading →

Will Wisconsin be our Greece?

The New Neo Posted on March 10, 2011 by neoMarch 10, 2011

The bill that restricts collective bargaining for public service unions has been passed in the Wisconsin Senate and the protesters were carried out of the capital building by Madison police, while Wisconsin Republicans receive death threats and there are rumblings … Continue reading →

Peter King McCarthy

The New Neo Posted on March 10, 2011 by neoMarch 10, 2011

Ten years ago, shortly after 9/11, I would have been surprised at the furor over Rep. Peter King’s daring to suggest a House hearing on homegrown terrorism that focuses mostly on Islamicist terrorist groups in this country. But not any … Continue reading →

The Wisconsin Senate votes without the fleebaggers…

The New Neo Posted on March 9, 2011 by neoMarch 9, 2011

…and the tally was 18-1 in favor of limiting the collective bargaining rights of public service workers. And isn’t this statement by Democrat Sen. Bob Jauch the very definition of chutzpah? He said that if Republicans “chose to ram this … Continue reading →
